MALEAH WILSON
Yoga Teacher
My focus follows my passion for applying accessible yoga and other movement approaches. The path I’ve chartered is cultivated from my own experience with injury and recovery. Within a six month span I injured my rotor cuff and herniated my L4/L5 disks with a 12 month old at home, you can imagine how fun that was. The orthopedic sports center I was teaching yoga at introduced me to Foundation Training and I was obsessed. I will be completing the certification this year and can’t wait to bring this cutting edge movement tool to the community. I’ve completed training with Leslie Glickman, Yoga Joint, Terri Cooper-Space and international teacher Alexandria Crow.
My unique perspective on posture and the interconnectedness between mind and body guide my creative and stimulating classes. I can’t wait to meet everyone and share the practices with you.
Shan’tel Davidson
Dance Teacher
Hi, my name is Shan’tel Y. Davidson, owner of Karisma Dance Fitness LLC.I began as a choreographer in 2006, instructing elementary, middle, and high school students for the Martin County School Board. My career then expanded to teaching private and group classes with local gyms and dance studios in Martin County, Fl.
I became Zumba certified and made my business official in 2020. I started dance fitness because going to the gym started to feel like a chore, and dancing has always been a fun way to stay in shape. So, I decided to combine dance with fitness, and in return, I’ve created a fun, sassy, energetic, and playful full-body workout.
My purpose is to motivate and inspire people through dance and movement.
I want to help people heal from insecurities, fear, and trauma through dance. And create a safe and fun place where everyone feels comfortable to learn and dance.
